Again, thanks for the advice people. I'm looking into a decent Desert Eagle spring pistol, which is the same price as the Mac 11 spring.
Actually, the possibility of CQB was what interested me in the first place. With paintball, you
have to go to some designated paintball feild. With airsoft, Hell, you can just play in someone's house... as long as they don't mind the little BBs.
My brother (who only occasionly blows his money on skateboarding) is investing in a M16 spring, so I'll at least have a chance to get the feel of a rifle while I'm saving up. The great thing about the Airsofters in my neighborhood is that they're always glad to let someone borrow their weapon. I believe there is a G3A3, G36c, UHC Super 9, M16A1, Super 368, and several pistols in the "community pot."
